Arab Coalition seizes explosive laden AL Houthi drone targeting locations in Hodeida
Iranian drone proves Tehran’s role in violating UN resolutions
Hodeida: The Saudi-led Arab Coalition has taken control of an Al Houthi booby-trapped drone with Iranian specifications which was heading to the Coalition’s locations in Al Duraihimi district of the Hodeida Governorate in Yemen.
The anti-drone unit’s specialist teams inspected the drone and found large quantities of explosives which were intended for use against selected targets, in a desperate attempt by the Iran-backed Al Houthi militias to raise the declining morale among its fighters following the successive defeats they suffered on the Red Sea Coast of Yemen.
The Arab Coalition forces continue to counter Al Houthi militia operations, fuelled by weapon shipments from Iran, in a stark violation of the UN Security Council Resolution 2216, issued in April 2015, which imposes an arms embargo on weapons supply to the militia. This clearly proves the involvement of the Iranian regime and its violation of the resolutions by providing the coup militias with ballistic missiles and drones.
